Summary of Unit A brief snapshot, as if
someone asked you to
briefly and clearly
describe the intent of the
lesson or project.
In order to appreciate a story or novel as a written piece of literature created by an author who makes choices, my students will identify and analyze the point of view from at least one page of an illustrated story. They will then revise that page to tell the story from a different point of view. Finally, the students will compare and contrast the original version to their revised version, focusing on similarities, differences, what is lost due to the shift in point of view, and what is gained due to the shift in point of view.
Essential Questions What will guide student
inquiry?
What was the author's purpose for telling this story from a particular point of view?
What parts of the story would we lose if it was told from a different point of view?
What might the story gain if it was told from a different point of view?
